    I also have this problem with an Asus laptop with Conexant SmartAudio HD, similar to hpkathy's post.

    The only "fix" - which is TEMPORARY - is to scan hardware.

    WHERE IS MICROSOFT ON ADDRESSING THIS ISSUE?

    [SOLVED!]

    I was able to solve this problem by switching operating systems (GNU/Linux Distribution). (obviously)

    It's a really fun process and quite technologically invigorating to make the big switch from windows to GNU/linux.

    I had the same issue since the windows update. I solve it but putting back the last version of my audio pilote in control panel. Hope it will help! :)
